Any chance on a widget for app like s memo? Thanks in advance

The widget is proving to be very tricky, however it is in the works. I honestly can't say how long it'll take to complete.

I think I might have found a bug in 0.3. When I switch between landscape and portrait my drawings disappear like it'd starting a new document.

That's odd, I'll release a bug fix soon.

Hi..installed this great and promising app (indeed what missing for CM9 users), but I noticed I cannot resize pictures when imported into memo. Small boxes at the corners appear for resizing, but not working....

P.S. I'm on Paranoid rom which is based on CM9

That's odd too. I'll try to fix it asap, but in the meantime resizing should still work you just have to drag the corners of the image, not the corners of the blue box.

Additional suggestion: just imported map screenshoot on memo and noticed that the quality of the picture is very low! Actually not possible to read street names and so on.
Would it be possible to set the quality of the inserted pictures?
THX!

I created a sample memo application using spen sdk for my personal use with only spen as input. Ran the same memo application in both cm9 and stock ics and observed that palm rejection only works in stock ICS.

I think there must be some problem with the driver of the digitizer in cm9 which is not able to register input if it receives both palm or finger touch and spen touch at the same time.

A new SPen SDK is out, version 2.1. I hope that implementing palm rejection will be easier.

What's new in S Pen SDK 2.1:
June 8th, 2012

New com.samsung.spen.lib.input package:
· For both Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) versions of Android
· Can now distinguish between a touch with a finger or the S Pen
· Side button status for compatibility

· For ICS only
· New Hover Event for the S Pen

New com.samsung.spen.lib.image package:
· New image filter class, API, and a sample application for easy image processing
· Pencil Sketch, Pastel Sketch, Mosaic images and various other image processing filters

New com.samsung.spen.applistener for structural improvement of the SDK:
· New and common listeners are grouped in the package

New TextSettingInfo class:
· Properties such as font, text size, text color, and alignment can be configured in each class and method, and can be applied to a CanvasView or SCanvasView.

New features and improvements for the SCanvasView class:
· Signature recognition, a color picker, and rotation for image objects
· Improved load and save speeds

Unnecessary and duplicated APIs have been deprecated, and the names of some APIs have been changed:
· The deprecated methods are available in the current version (2.1), but will be removed in the future.

Sample source code with new features has been added:
· Samples for Signature recognition, Using Image filters, S Pen Event Checking, Color Picker and more.

· Some errors and bugs in the 2.0.1 version have been corrected in this release

I'm now in contact with Samsung (I love how professional that sounds

) about this, I think it might be a bug with the SDK. Edit: or a bug with CM9. Basically there's a chance there's nothing I can do about it

I've reduced the compression on the latest (as yet unreleased) version, should fix this.

This is what I think is happening. I made a little touch tester application to try and find out why it wouldn't work.

If I first put my finger on the screen and start moving it everything works no problem.
If I then keep my finger completely still and put the s-pen down and start moving it around it does not detect two touches, but rather stops detecting that my finger is on the screen and will only detect the s-pen.
If at any point when both my finger and the s-pen are on the screen and I move my finger, I get one "cancel" touch event, then it completely stops recognizing any on screen movement from my finger, the s-pen or anything else.
The only way to get it to start recognizing s-pen touches again is to lift the s-pen off the screen (i'm guessing this kind of "resets" it).

So rejecting finger touches is easy, but if you ever move your palm when writing (which is pretty much impossible not to do) it stops drawing.

SDK 2.1 is what is used in versions 0.2 and 0.3.

Just a thought, but what exactly is it that you want the widget to do?

What exactly is it that you want the widget to do? As I haven't used s memo in a while so can't remember what it does.

It presents a miniature picture of an memo page. Very useful when you have a to do list.

Can you interact with it? Draw on it? Or is it basically a glorified shortcut?

mdalacu · Jun 8, 2012

When you click it, it will open the SMemo app with that page, in view mode, so you have to press another icon to be able to edit it ...

ng93 · Jun 8, 2012

Ah that sounds fairly basic then.

Right so a little Q&A: the reason the widget has been taking so long (and is going to take a lot longer) is that I've been making it so that you can write/draw on the widget.

Now if I put that version on hold and make a new widget which just lets you view a note thats already been created I should be able to get that made fairly quickly.

So which one would people prefer? If I put the current widget on hold I'm unlikely to get back to it for a while.

v0.4 is up

Added tooltips to image buttons
Added fullscreen mode
Added option to show background when sharing memos
Added option to automatically delete temporary file on application exit
App is now locked to portrait mode
Fixed bug where s-pen would use finger mode tools
Added export to PDF
Fixed bug when attempting to add a new folder with no name
General performance improvements
Fixed bug where \"Done\" button on keyboard would not have any effect when setting a custom offset
Fixed bug where images imported from the gallery would be overly compressed
To handle the higher quality imported images the application now requests an increased heap size
Files that start with a full stop \".\" are now reserved for system use
Corrected typos in settings

Download link is in the OP

So which one would people prefer?

A resizable one on which one can draw, save it and create a new empty one. That would be perfect!

Again, thank you very much for your work!

Thanks for great app. I like stock rom because of Samsung's colorful UI, s Pen and s memo and I like AOKP/CM9 navigation bar. Since no roms can give both, I use LiquidSmooth. I use Freenote + but the interface is not as good as s memo. Now with your hard work, I have what I want. Many thanks.
